[NOTE: This is my first fanfiction ever! It's a, like, first person perspective flow-of-consciousness kinda thing for That Kid for that scene near the end of S2E1. Maybe I read into the scene way too much, i dunno. I just really wanted to write this for a while... so here it is! It's pretty rough if i'm being honest, but it's been a while since I've written anything. Comments and criticisms are always appreciated!]

Well… I guess I'll just go home, then. It'd be silly to sit at school and watch anime by myself. I guess I could stay just in case someone else shows up? …nobody else comes to this club anyways...

We'll just have to stay twice as long next time, to make up for it.

Hey… is that Emma? She came to school today! Anime club is officially un-canceled!

"Hey Emma! You're here! Cortney's at her place redecorating, and Doris and Gretchen are at the mall, but! I borrowed some of Gretchen's DVDs so we can—"

"Oh, uh, actually, I'm going to Jamie's place."

Oh! Who's Jamie?

"Uh, this is Jamie." "Hi."

"Oh, OK."

I was hoping me and Emma could hang out, but it's okay. I mean, people have to do their own thing sometimes, right? And Jamie seems nice, I guess. I'd hang out with her too, probably. Jamie is a nice name.

"Next time, though!"

I mean, that's alright. She's not gonna be here today. Because her first day back at school she wants to talk with Jamie, but, that's okay, she'll be here next time. That's good! And I mean, I saw her yesterday, so it's not like we haven't seen each other in forever, or anything. I brought her the homework, so we talked already, a little bit. So she can hang out with Jamie.

"…Have fun."

Jamie… seems cool, I guess. I can kinda see why Emma would think she's cooler than me. I mean, Jamie's a cool name, it's way better than—

…has Emma ever—

Does Emma know my name?

…No, of course she knows my name! We've been friends since, like, forever! She just, kinda…

…never says it.
